Study techniques

    I'm pretty much stumped when it comes to study. I TRY to write out notes whilst going through my textbooks, but it takes it's time. I was wondering if you have any other techniques that work and should I invest in any revision books? If so, please recommend some good ones.

    For French, all I really need to work on is my grammar (tenses, prepositions etc) so, websites or books for these are greatly appreciated :)

    Accounting HL
    Physics OL (counting that out anyways)

    Maybe writing out notes doesn't suit how you learn.
    Have you tried a more visual approach such as mind maps?

    Until you become aware of what your own learning style is, techniques that work for others may not work for you.

    Mhm, I agree. I've tried mind maps before, terrible at making them however :P what I tend to do for class tests and Sraith Pictiúr is to learn them just before I sleep, so that they're the last thought going into my head (also long term memory etc). But to do that for the LC and mocks would be suicide.
